    My wedding's the weekend after yours, and we're planning on sending them in early June. We also sent Save the Dates back in March, so folks already know it's coming.

    My wedding is sep 15..... I'm sending mine out June 1st with an RSVP by July 15th....... that gives us 2 months to get all our chairs and tables reserved and to know how many centerpieces I need to make and allow us to invite the b list ppl if there's room.

    I would also say early June since you’re getting married on a holiday weekend. This will give everyone plenty of time to prepare/plan for the weekend (and enough advanced notice so that they don’t make other plans for the weekend!)

    I haven't either! I'm having a graphic designer friend work on them, but should be done soon! I sent save the dates so people are aware of the date to mark off their calendar Smiley shame

    I've also thought 10-12 weeks before the wedding. Since it is a holiday weekend, would say the sooner the better. Our wedding is September 22nd and we are planning on mailing our invitations out July 1st.

    Our date is 9/15 and I plan to mail invitations last week in June with an RSVP date of 8/12. I wasn't going to do save the dates but ended up sending some out to just family and long distance folks just last week.

    We're getting married September 2nd and sending ours out around Mid June (Hoping for June 18th). We don't have to give our final count in till 3 days before so we could do a later RSVP deadline and we did send out Save the Dates.

    Me too! 9.22 I wanted to send them out first week of June but I also wanted to send a engagement photo to aunts and uncles before I send invites but we hit a snag with pics and half are done and half are being taken Friday night. Ugh stressful. I want to send them before SIL can send bridal luncheon invites for mid July (only time we could work it in) but not sure if rsvp date should be before hotel RSVP due date ( on them to book for discount) of Aug 21. Idk what to put as my RSVP date.

    Hi we are wedding twins. I was also thinking to send mine out the end of June but on my RSVP I have Aug. 4 because I don't want to wait until the last minute.
